is it possible to reorganize the ./configure help options

Grief - the re-ordering is done by changing the order of the options
in configure.in. That tends to generate -huge- patches and screws with
the interdependency of various options (if we're not quite careful).

Well, if you're just concerned about patch size - we could do that
in smaller steps. Option declarations (AC_ARG_ENABLE[]+friends calls)
already seem to be pretty separated from actual option handling,
so this, IMHO shouldn't be such a big deal.

The more interesting question to me right now is: how to add the
separate section headers, so configure --help would look like:

      --enable-some-foo         blaah

MacOS-X target specific options

      --with-macosx-sdk         .....
                                .....
